According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Viktor Gyokeres is among the top Juventus alternatives to Victor Osimhen, as long as the Bianconeri qualify for the Champions League.
Juventus must wait for the final season game in Serie A to start planning their future.
Revenue from the Champions League is crucial in the summer transfer window, and the Bianconeri need three more points to seal a top-four finish in a frankly disappointing campaign.
Gazzetta insists that Napoli-owned striker Osimhen is the Bianconeri’s primary transfer target in attack, but the Nigerian forward would cost more than his €75m clause, which is not valid for Serie A clubs.
Furthermore, other sources have reported that Osimhen has already snubbed an offer from Juventus and is now in talks with Al-Hilal.
According to Gazzetta, Sporting CP’s striker Gyokeres would be one of the primary Juventus targets if Osimhen doesn’t move to Turin.
According to the report, Gyokeres would cost circa €75m, but Arsenal, Manchester United and other Premier League clubs have already targeted the Sweden international.
If Juventus fail to qualify for the Champions League, then Atalanta’s Mateo Retegui and Ademola Lookman, who are available for €40m to €50m, would be the players to watch for the Bianconeri, alongside Udinese’s Lorenzo Lucca.
